Although I don’t pretend to know the correct course of action in this particular situation, I do believe it’s these everyday little abuses of power and cloaked deals that make citizens disgusted with the political process. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again (and probably again, and again, and again…) public servants need to be voluntarily forthcoming with all conflicts of interest, personal benefit, and offer detailed plans to taxpayers. This is the only way to restore faith in our system and in the public officials that make taxing and spending decisions on behalf of others.

There are few abuses that boil my blood more than improper or fraudulent voter registration. Signing citizens up to cast their inaugural ballot is a sacred privilege that too many groups do not respect. Not only are these cesspools of corruption bilking deserving candidates out of winning elections, but they are also defrauding all voters, and even all citizens, out of a free and fair election system.
